Freight Yard Manager

The main goal of Freight Yard Manager (FYM) is to have fun! Basic operations include creating just about every type of currently operating railroad car, from the basic boxcar to articulated intermodal well cars. Cars are loaded and assigned a destination, then routed by players to the destination map. The cars are unloaded, and either returned to the place of origin for reloading, or loaded at the current yard and assigned a new destination. There are no fixed rules as to what players should do with the cars they handle. FYM uses a 2D overhead view of the Freight Yards (maps) - using actual satellite images as a background and "laying" Prototypical trackage over the image. FYM recognizes the lines as different types of track and switches, and guides the trains along them as if they were physical rails. An extensive network links the maps such that players can run their trains map to map, all over North America.
